What I put together from searching...
1. The first step is to jailbreak the iPod Touch.
Use iJailbreak and follow the on screen instructions as you go along. For a preview of what it will do check out this video on youtube:

2. Use the newly installed Installer.app to add useful apps.
I. Start with “Community Sources” & it will add a lot more apps to chose from to install.
II. Install “OpenSSH” & “BSD Subsystem” you won’t see them as icons but you’ll need them for other apps.
3. Connect to your iPod Touch from your computer. (To add more apps and backup)
I. Download your favorite sftp program. I used cyber duck.
II. Find your iPod Touch IP address. Settings>> WiFi >> Details of Current Connection.
III. Using your sftp program connect to the iPod Touch.?- root for the username /alpine for the password. Make sure to use SFTP and not plain old FTP. Also sftp is port 22 not 21 in case it helps.
IV. You can use this to add alot of third party apps into the Application folder but we will add the iPhone’s apps as an example in step 4.
4. Adding Mail, Stocks, Weather, & Maps to the iPod Touch.
first, download this file:

OR
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GN9CKYJX
After unzip, there are eight files / folders in total, and place them on your iPod Touch as follow, replace if prompted.
**note file permissions need to be set to 755 via ftp or ssh. REMEMBER, all files in folders and subfolders have to be in permission 755 for the apps to run properly – but on the files I downloaded they already were**
Weather.app, MobileMail.app, Stock.app, Maps.app, MobileNotes to /Applications/
GMM.framework to /System/Library/Frameworks/?Framework for Maps.app, MobileMail.app (Not sure if MobileMail need this tho, but I have GMM installed before installing MobileMail)
N45AP.plist to /System/Library/CoreServices/SpringBoard.app/?The file above is for enabling the add / edit calendar events
MobileMailSettings.bundle to /System/Library/PreferenceBundles/?The file above is for MobileMail’s accounts setting
5. Changing file permissions for the apps to work
in Terminal type
1) ssh -l root xxx.xxx.x.x
xxx.xxx.x.x = your Touch IP address - l = lower case L (LIMA)
2) enter password = alpine
chmod -R a+x /Applications/MobileMail.app
chmod -R a+x /Applications/Maps.app
chmod -R a+x /Applications/MobileNotes.app
chmod -R a+x /Applications/Stocks.app
chmod -R a+x /Applications/Weather.app
6. Changing the password on the SHH
in Terminal type
1) ssh -l root xxx.xxx.x.x
xxx.xxx.x.x = your Touch IP address - l = lower case L (LIMA)
2) enter password = alpine
3) type passwd
4) type in new password (you won't see it on your screen)
5 retype new password
done!
